The Wyrd Ones

Three days into a desert retreat, an indigenous man handed Christopher a staff of authority. Permission to speak the language, sing the songs, serve the medicine. It felt like everything he'd been waiting for.

In this episode: a former Catholic priest turned medicine keeper, a live translation between two worlds, and the moment Christopher was told the truth. Nobody can give you permission except you.

He got the staff anyway. Then watched it turn into a toy the second he got back to a rented room in Phoenix.

This is the story behind the wound the Trace named: unsponsored authorship. Why the mission was never the problem. The permission was.

This episode is about channeling, possession, inherited wounds, and why I'm finally done waiting until it feels safe to show up.

I tell the story of the night my friends threw me in a lake on LSD in Guatemala to exorcise what they believed was a demon. What actually happened is more complicated and more interesting than that.

From there: the sensitive kid who learned to shut it down. The Armstrong lineage and how many of them probably hid the same gifts to survive. Six years of only accessing the channel when high enough to stop policing myself. And what changed a month and a half ago that hadn't changed in six years.

This is episode two of For the Wyrd Ones.

Last episode I hit pause on a movie because it was mirroring my own nervous system back at me and I couldn't take it. This episode I finish it, and I finish the thought.

Like Stars on Earth follows a dyslexic kid getting punished by a system that has no room for how his mind actually works. Sound familiar. I talk about what happened when I sat back down to watch the ending: a new teacher walks in, sees the kid for what he is instead of what he's failing at, and everything shifts. Einstein, Edison, da Vinci, all named as men who couldn't read or write the way the system wanted either.

I connect that straight to my own frustration with funnels, pipelines, and selling things I hate building. Why the world isn't built for neurodivergent people, why that's not a flaw, and why the outliers are the ones who actually move humanity forward. Also: my 4am biphasic sleep experiment, why I don't believe in Darwinian evolution, and why I built an AI dictation system so I can work the way Voltaire and Agatha Christie did instead of the way productivity culture tells me to.

Watched Like Stars on Earth (Taare Zameen Par) tonight. A kid getting punished for being wired different. Had to stop halfway through.

Started crying, and it wasn’t really about the kid. It was about me at that age, the version of me that got good at performing instead of falling apart. High achiever. Competent. No one had to yell at me because I’d already learned how to make myself acceptable.

Take away the structure and the systems now, and I watch myself fall apart in real time. Even mid cry, some part of my brain was already trying to turn it into content. That’s the sickness. Monetizing your own grief before you’ve even felt it.

This one’s unedited.

Standing on Calton Hill in Edinburgh, surrounded by obelisks, monuments, and an unfinished Parthenon, I didn't see a park.

I saw a circuit board.

In this audio I walk through what Calton Hill actually is, what it was before the Enlightenment got hold of it, and what was deliberately overwritten when they planted monuments to rational philosophy, military victory, and imperial science on top of an ancient Celtic sacred site.

We cover:

Why Calton Hill was a sacred node long before anyone built anything on it

What the monuments are actually doing energetically

What the Gaelic animist culture actually believed, and why it got called barbaric

The direct line between the Highland Clearances and the template for "normal" intelligence

Why the weird ones, the too sensitive, the too much, are the direct descendants of what got erased

What's shifting now and where we're being called

A full companion article goes deeper into the mechanics, the history, and the other sites I walked through on this trip. Coming soon.

I recorded something real today. Then it disappeared.

I shifted from frustration to trust. It showed up at 2:33am.

Turns out that's the whole model.

Listen to find out what I mean, and why I'm building something for people who are done forcing.
